Research Interests
I am most interested in the relative timing and spacing of faults and gold
deposition, particularly in disseminated gold deposits in Nevada.
Current Research
Summer 1997 was spent analyzing fluid flow through faults and fractures at
Alligator Ridge Mining District, Nevada. Geologic mapping, collecting
scanareas of fracture networks, and sampling of wallrocks were the main
components of my field work. I am now conducting geochemical analyses and
producing GIS maps in the lab from the samples and data that I
collected.
